How it started / How it's going

William Snakespear was our first infernalis, arriving the week of Thanksgiving, 2018. We thought she was a male for a long time and by the time we figured it out, the name had stuck.

William has always been darkly colored. The truth is, I used to be a bit jealous of the bright reds and blues that people show off in the groups. But hasn't she turned into a stunner?

William's easy to hold. Never bites and rarely musks. She's also, notably, the slowest eater on the planet, hovering over her food and occasionally even resting her chin on it. We have to protect her meal from wood-be-thieves in her group enclosure.

Though almost 7 years old, William has only had two litters of babies. The first was last year and now a large, healthy clutch today.

Congrats William! We can't wait to see if you've passed these dark genes along. ❤️

How to train your infernalis / aka, how to perform an exorcism.

These tips are good for all species but are especially helpful with infernalis since they sometimes carry a shady reputation.

- Handle babies with every meal.
- Weekly swim parties and let them gently squirm through a towel to dry off.
- Glass enclosures in high traffic areas so they get used to seeing you.

Happy birthday to these choice cuties!
3 months old and growing like weeds.

Captive bred T.s. infernalis. Eating pinkies from both plate and tongs. We handle regularly. No biting but may musk.

Are those wings they’ve grown??? Looks like they’re ready to fly!
